Possible. Argh. I’m in no condition to check the rest of this post for errors right now ( I know it’s only 3 sentences), but please forgive any errors contained within. In this post too if you don’t mind.
My present home town is the snack food capitol of the world. Utz, Snyders of Hanover, Wege Pretzel Company and nearby Martin’s Potato Chips in Thomasville have undoubtedly graced your parties and padded your butt. 
I grew up in Hartsville, named for Colonel William Hart who ran the inn there for some years, said inn being a stagecoach stop between Philadelphia and New York. In 1777 at headquarters farm, General Washington held councils of war, and French General Lafayette received his commission from the Continental Army.

Troy, NY is known as the home of Uncle Sam. However, if you live here, it’s known for crime. I lock my car door whenever I have to go downtown.
My hometown of Brasher Falls, NY isn’t known for anything that I know of. According to the link, the population is larger than I thought it would be. 750 people? Wow!

My current town: nothing I can think of.
My Hometown: one of the oldest townships in the state (338 years). Most people who live there don’t know but George Washington spent the second anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independance there. There was a parade and a review of the troops. Of course the next town over takes credit but he was staying in my hometown and thats where the parade started.
Well, apparently we are currently known for “Racially charged Halloween displays” right here on SDMB.
I grew up in Dayton, Ohio, and I currently work there. Dayton is famous for the following:
Hometown of the Wright Brothers. You know, the guys who “invented powered flight.”
A really big flood that happened in March of 1913.
Inventions. Lots of famous inventors hail from Dayton.
National Museum of the United States Air Force, which is the world’s largest and oldest military aviation museum.
Hamvention / Hamfest, which I believe is the largest regularly-scheduled ham radio convention in the world.
Wright Patterson Air Force Base. WPAFB was the home of the Dayton Peace Accords on Bosnia. It’s also one of the most important AFBs in the country, and is the home of the Air Force Research Lab.
Dayton is the hometown for the Amateur Trapshooting Associating. (And guess where they shoot? Where else but the airport!)
NCR headquarters.
Dayton was once the start of the Oregon Trail, famous in American history as a pathway for “settling” the west.
The Dayton Air Show, which is one of the largest air shows in the country.
While I’m at it, I should also mention that the City of Dayton is famous for having one of the worst public school systems in the country. It’s also a very racially-divided city, with (for the most part) blacks living on the west side of the river and whites living on the east side.
And some funny/interesting things about Dayton:
The Great Miami River snakes its way through downtown Dayton. Interstate 75 crosses over the river five times over a distance of roughly five miles.
The Great Miami River is an “invisible river” in Dayton. No one seems to even acknowledge its existence.
We don’t have a major sports team.
Everyone that lives here wants to move to Florida.
Around the Dayton area, jobs are plentiful, the homes are nice, and the cost of living is low.
One stop of the LPGA championship tour.
Also, the Eddie and the Cruisers movie shot here
Born in Punxsutawney, Pa. Home of the famous weather predicting groundhog, Punxy Phil. Setting of the Bill Murray movie Groundhog Day, which waas actually filmed in Illinois.
Beaver Falls, Pa. where I currently reside has no real claim to fame except that Joe Namath (who?) is from here and there once was a glass/china factory here that made products which are now considered valuable collector’s items.

My hometown: Birthplace of Horace Mann You may have attended a school named after him. We can sort of claim Helen Keller and Annie Sullivan as they lived in Franklin before it really became Wrentham. Also we have the oldest functioning one-room schoolhouse on the east coast, if not the nation.
